Summary
Apostolos Gioulis is a Senior Application Security Engineer based in London with over a decade of hands-on experience building and maturing AppSec programs across startups and global consultancies. He combines deep technical skills—especially in Android security, malware reverse engineering, CI/CD-integrated mobile scanning, and secure architecture—with proven leadership in training, team building, and process design. At Bumble he revived and automated the MAST program, slashing backlog by over 80%, and at Xenios he helped drive ISO 27001 readiness while architecting secure systems from the ground up. His background includes leading large distributed teams, creating training pipelines for junior pentesters, and operating in highly classified environments during military service. Continually curious and practical, he pairs academic rigor (Distinction in Information Security from Royal Holloway) with an uncommon hobby as a part-time blacksmith, reflecting a hands-on, craft-oriented approach to both security and problem-solving.
